Chris Boswell Can Remain In Starting Lineups Against Giants

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell continued what has been a sensational 2024 campaign in Week 7 and will stay at home this week for a Monday night showdown against the New York Giants. While it is worth noting that the Giants have not surrendered a ton of production to fantasy kickers, and that this contest […]

Wil Lutz An Excellent Week 8 Option

Denver Broncos kicker Wil Lutz is one of the better Week 8 options when his team takes on the Carolina Panthers. Lutz has been outstanding this season, knocking through all 12 of his extra-point attempts while drilling 17-of-18 field goal tries (94.4%). The 30-year-old gets an excellent matchup this Sunday against a Panthers squad that's […]

We had another blizzard of news items to absorb in Week 7, which demands another updated rest-of-season rankings table! Football remains cursed by the injury gods while trades and a looming suspension continue to shake the landscape for our Week 8 fantasy football half-PPR rankings for the rest of 2024, as of October 24. Check […]

Cam Little Not A Great Option Against Packers

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Cam Little should not be started by most fantasy managers in Week 8 against the Green Bay Packers. The Jaguars offense has been better of late, but the Packers defense should be able to hold them in check. On top of that, the Packers have been one of the best defenses in […]

Let's see where key kicker options like Chase McLaughlin, Brandon Aubrey, Younghoe Koo, Wil Lutz, John Bates, and Justin […]

Jake Moody Officially Declared Out For Week 8

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody (right ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. This hardly comes as a surprise given that Moody missed all three practices this week and hasn't played since initially suffering the injury in Week 5. Injuries to Moody and Matthew Wright have led the 49ers […]

Cairo Santos Reliable Kicking Option Against Commanders In Week 8

Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos is a solid fantasy option for Week 8 against the Washington Commanders. Although he missed his only field goal attempt last week against the Jaguars, he did convert all five of his extra points. The Bears' offense is expected to perform well against Washington this Sunday, providing Santos with several […]

Blake Grupe A Bad Bet For Week 8

New Orleans Saints placekicker Blake Grupe was good on his only field goal attempt in Week 7. The make, from 35 yards out, kept Grupe perfect on field goal tries this season. He also converted his only extra-point attempt of the night. Facing the stiff defense of the Denver Broncos, the Saints found it hard […]

Harrison Butker To Continue Kicking Success

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 8. Butker knocked through all four extra-point attempts in Week 7 against the San Francisco 49ers. The Chiefs kicker did not attempt a field goal in last week's contest. From a fantasy perspective, Butker's performance was poor, but he made every […]

Eddy Pineiro Should Expect Another Quiet Day At Work In Week 8

There's not much to say about Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro this season. He's the least of Carolina's problems, maybe because they've hardly seen him. Pineiro has attempted just 10 field goals this year—making nine of them—and is 11-for-11 on PATs. While not a trustworthy fantasy option, but it will be interesting to see if […]

Austin Seibert Remains High-End Kicker Facing Chicago

Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert remains a high-end kicking option in Week 8 when he faces the Chicago Bears. Since joining the Commanders in Week 2, Seibert has missed just one attempt and has been perfect on all extra points. He has attempted at least two field goals in all but one game and attempted […]

Greg Zuerlein A Low-End Fantasy Option In Week 8

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein will kick against the New England Patriots on the road in Week 8. Zuerlein has struggled with his accuracy in 2024, missing five of his 13 attempts thus far. He will look to turn things around against a Patriots defense that is allowing the 13th-most fantasy points per game […]

Jake Elliott On The Streaming Radar Against Bengals

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott will go on the road to take on the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 8. The 24-year-old did not need to attempt a field goal last week in the Eagles' blowout win over the New York Giants, making for a poor fantasy performance propelled by four extra-point conversions. It has been […]

Jason Myers Keeps Chugging Along In 2024

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers continues to be a quality kicker in fantasy in 2024. Myers got back into the double-digit scoring ranks when he sank two field goals and four extra points against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 7. The Seahawks are trending towards another game that will require high-scoring output in Week 8 […]

Jake Bates A Strong Streaming Option In Week 8 Against Titans

Detroit Lions kicker Jake Bates is coming off a game-winning field goal in Week 7 and heads into a favorable matchup against the Tennessee Titans in Week 8. The Titans have been allowing double-digit fantasy points to kickers, setting Bates up for another strong outing. Bates has been nearly perfect this season, converting 10-of-10 field […]

Dustin Hopkins A Low-End Option In Week 8

Cleveland Browns kicker Dustin Hopkins will take on the Baltimore Ravens at home in Week 8. The Ravens have been generous to fantasy kickers this season, allowing the 10th-most fantasy points per game to the position through seven games. That being said, Hopkins has attempted more than two field goals just twice in seven games […]

Favorable Matchup For Houston’s Ka'imi Fairbairn

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn is in excellent form heading into a Week 8 game against the Indianapolis Colts. In seven weeks so far this season, the veteran kicker has five top-10 finishes at his position and nine made field goals of 50 or more yards. Additionally, the Colts rank 26th against fantasy kickers and […]

Justin Tucker A Good Option In Week 8

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker has rounded into form over the last few weeks. In their Week 7 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, he made all five of his extra points while knocking through a 28 and 52-yarder. He's now made both of his 50-yard attempts since missing the first two to start the […]

Jason Sanders A Possible Streaming Option For Week 8

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders has been underwhelming in the 2024 season but will look to rebound in Sunday's matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. In the absence of Tua Tagovailoa (concussion), the offense has struggled mightily to produce scoring opportunities and move the ball effectively. Tagovailoa will make his return on Sunday and should provide […]

Cameron Dicker A Smart Week 8 Choice

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker is a smart choice in Week 8 fantasy lineups. Dicker finished as the highest-scoring fantasy kicker in Week 7, finishing with a difference-making 21 points after kicking five field goals and accounting for all of the Chargers scoring. He was the sixth overall kicker the week before that, and […]

Joey Slye Off Fantasy Radar Amidst Tough Stretch

New England Patriots kicker Joey Slye has endured a tough stretch of games and drops off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 8 clash with the New York Jets. Slye has gone 5-for-5 on extra points and just 2-for-3 on field goals over his last three games, seeing reduced volume as the Patriots limp […]

Daniel Carlson Could See Limited Volume In Week 8

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson showed he was still one of the NFL's best by converting all five of his attempts in Week 7, but he faces the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8, who allow the tenth-fewest fantasy points to opposing kickers in the NFL. In addition, Las Vegas' offense will be without […]

Jake Moody Still Not Practicing With Niners

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody (ankle) missed a second straight day of practice this week on Thursday due to a right-ankle sprain. The 49ers have already ruled Moody out for the Week 8 contest on Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys. The team has a bye upcoming in Week 9, so hopefully Moody will […]

Cowboys Expect Brandon Aubrey To Be Ready For Week 8

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said he expects kicker Brandon Aubrey to be ready for the Week 8 game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night. "We have a plan to make sure he'll be ready," McCarthy said. Aubrey is set to miss a second straight practice on Thursday while on jury duty, […]

NFL DFS Lineup Picks For FanDuel, DraftKings - Vikings vs. Rams TNF Showdown (Week 8)

Welcome back, RotoBallers! That Cardinals game on Monday was quite the snoozefest up until the end. It did not go how I had imagined but that is okay as there is always the next game. This one should be a solid Thursday night game as Sam Darnold and the Minnesota Vikings look to bounce back […]

Joshua Karty Not A Good Option In Week 8

Los Angeles Rams kicker Joshua Karty's only field goal attempt in Week 7 caromed off the right upright for a miss, his second of 2024. Karty also missed an extra point attempt for the second time in as many contests, having missed a chance in the Rams' Week 5 contest against the Green Bay Packers […]

Jake Moody Absent From Practice To Begin Week 8

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody (right ankle) did not participate in Wednesday's practice. As of now, it appears the second-year kicker is trending toward missing his third consecutive game. The kicking position has suddenly been a revolving door for San Francisco, which has depended on the legs of Moody, Matthew Wright, and Anders Carlson […]

Giants Not Expected To Fire Brian Daboll, Joe Schoen

New York Giants co-owner John Mara said on Wednesday that there will not be any changes during the regular season with the team and he doesn't expect any changes to happen during the offseason, either. While Mara and the rest of the Giants' front-office decision-makers could always change their minds later in the year, right […]

Will Reichard Looks To Stay Perfect In Week 8

Minnesota Vikings kicker Will Reichard has maintained perfection through the first six games of his rookie campaign, and he'll look to keep that streak going against the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday Night Football in Week 8. Reichard is 12-for-12 on field goals and 18-for-18 on extra points, nailing four kicks from 50-plus yards out. […]

Chad Ryland Hits Game-Winning Field Goal In Week 7

Arizona Cardinals kicker Chad Ryland drilled his only attempt, which was the 32-yard game-winning field goal for the Cardinals on Monday night. Ryland also hit two extra points to go along with the game-winning field goal. This was a grinding matchup between two offenses that played at a slower pace, and the Cardinals' offense didn't […]
